Are you also into learning a new language? Is it your new interest? However, I don’t know about yours, but language learning is my new interest. And it is quite encouraging and knowledgeable as well. Why is it encouraging and how? Well, this is a nice question and I would love to answer it.

People usually find sports, dance, and extra-curricular activities interesting and that’s their opinion and there is no discussion about that.

But, language learning is the only thing that combines native education with something fun and eventually, you get to have another skill.

Learning a new language is fun and it has become my hobby to learn something about every language. Many people might think, why learn a new language when you don’t have any use of that? Well, it is a misconception that learning a new language is a waste, especially for people who don’t go outside their nations.

For now, I won’t deep dive into this. As language learning became my hobby I got to know several tips and tricks that helped me learn a new language.

Though you can find many resources and tips to learn a new language on the internet, I think everything on the internet is not entirely reliable.

When people get into this, even when I was looking for tips and resources on the internet, the hundreds of results just blew my mind. I was like, from where should I start, some of the results were so negative, that for once, I thought to give up.

But, then I went to some social media platforms to look for the original reviews of people about learning a new language, and there, everybody had their own opinions and thankfully they weren’t so negative and it gave me some relief.

Learning a new language isn’t so difficult, it just requires consistency and determination and that’s my personal observation. However, coming back to tips, tricks, and resources.

You can try the Duolingo app, though it’s not that reliable, but as a beginner, it will make language learning fun for you. However, people had mixed reactions about this app on Reddit, and here are the reactions, you can check for yourself – 

But, what I like the most are the online learning classes. You can try joining offline campuses too, but if you cannot invest too much time, online learning is better as many platforms like Coursera allow you to learn at your pace. Though I have tried it myself and if you don’t believe, you can see for yourself –

But, you can also look for the reviews of people about Coursera in this thread –

Moving on, during my learning days, I encountered a comment from a user on Reddit that gave me the tip to learn any language by listening, and remember, to listen with its written transcript and you won’t believe, that it actually worked as your three senses are working in this. How? You are listening to an audio, and whatever you listen to, somehow you are bound to speak that and that’s my own observation, and lastly you are also seeing the written transcripts. So, it creates an environment of that language strolling around you. All thanks to that user – Hummusrecipesneeded.
